Wish Me Luck!

If you didn't see, I introduced myself in roll call. I'm heading down to New Mexico Unit 21 next Thursday for my first deer hunt. Hoping to bag a nice Muley Buck! I can use all the help I can get. I plan on hunting hard and long from sun up to sun down. Correct me if I am wrong, but they shouldn't be in rut just yet, right? I've read everything from early Nov all the way up to late January for New Mexico mule deer. So, frankly, I have no freakin' idea when the rut is. We'll have a new moon the night before the first day of the hunt. I know it's debatable about the effects of a new moon, but who knows... maybe it works in my favor.

So anyway, I'd sure appreciate any insight from the experienced hunters here. Regardless of the results, I know I will enjoy every minute of the experience, but I'd love to post some pictures of a successful hunt in a couple weeks. Thanks in advance!
